2020 Map of Bar X Wash

USGS Topo · Published 2020

About this map

Book Cliffs dominate the northern landscape of this high-desert region where the borders of Utah and Colorado meet. This 2020 survey illustrates a remote territory defined by industrial energy infrastructure and expansive drainage systems like Wild Cow Wash and the namesake Bar X Wash. The presence of the Bar X Gas Field and Mountain Fuel infrastructure indicates the area's continued importance for resource extraction. Below the prominent escarpment labeled Below The Rim, a network of utility and access roads such as Bookcliff Ridge Rd and the Mac Intyre Cutoff navigate the complex terrain of Grand Valley. Water is scarce, traced only by the winding paths of Bitter Cr and McDonald Cr, which cut through the arid canyons and basins.
